By employing a range of tonal values to achieve an atmospheric depth that seems almost palpable, Boudin invites the viewer to ponder the relationships between matter and illumination in his rendering of the everyday.When enlarged to 61×44 inches, “Seated Lady in Black” assumes a commanding presence within a luxury interior environment.
